Dr. Zaki Afzal | PT Isn't Broken It's Just Being Done Wrong #46

When former UFC champion Miesha Tate injured her knee, she was told by multiple medical professionals that surgery was her only option. Enter Dr. Zaki Afzal—a leading physical therapist in Las Vegas who helped her fully recover without going under the knife. In this episode, Miesha and Dr. Zaki sit down to talk about her journey back to strength, and how his patient-first, movement-based approach changed everything. Dr. Zaki specializes in helping active adults, athletes, and lifters get rid of pain and return to the sports and workouts they love—without relying on pain meds, injections, or surgeries. As the founder of Optimize Physical Therapy & Performance, he’s on a mission to fix what’s broken in the healthcare system and give people the kind of care he wishes he had. This conversation is a powerful look at healing, strength, and trusting your body to do what it was built to do.
